Abstract
"As organizations evolve and begin to seek more prestige and status with their clientele and society as a whole, they begin the process known as professionalization. This process encourages these organizations to acquire those identifiable characteristics, which were achieved in the professions such as medicine and law. Hart and Marshall (1992) summarized the fundamental characteristics of a profession into five specific criteria. This study examined only two of the five criteria: (a) an established code of ethics for them members of the organization, and (b) how the organization policed itself when the code was violated. The institution of education was one such group that has aspired the status of a true profession. Therefore, the problem of this study was to research what each state has done in developing and enforcing a code of ethics for its educators."
